OBAGI BLUE SKIN PEEL

The Obagi Blue Skin Peel is a popular chemical peel containing trichloroacetic acid which can dramatically improve the complexion by reducing uneven pigmentation, fine lines, scars and blemishes. A blue dye is used to help ensure even and consistent spread of the peel over all areas being treated.

The product is not sold to individuals but through specialist doctor led clinics to ensure the process is completed as per guidelines suggested by the manufacturer, to avoid potential skin damage.

 

Treatment requires 3 sessions with 4 weeks between each. Effects last from 6 – 8 months.

Obagi Blue Skin Peel is mixed with a company-designed proprietary blue base that gives a bluish tint to the skin after the procedure is complete and remains on the skin for a period of 12 to 24 hours before it completely washes off.
